Abstract
Abstract - In Various Urban Agglomerations throughout India and especially in Mumbai there is a serious problem of old and dilapidated buildings in the city core. These building mostly small in land and built-up area are single isolated buildings which are in dilapidated state and are more than 30 yrs. old. Yet tenants/ owners are living in them. These buildings form a major part of suburban Mumbai and Mumbai respectively. If These buildings are redeveloped then it will lead to better housing for tenants, increase the facade of buildings, bring in more open spaces and amenities, increase the value of real estate and so on. Redevelopment is basically demolishing the old building and erecting a new more structurally sound building on the same place with same or more built-up area. But the redevelopment process is far from being easy. The redevelopment process itself is ridden with various barriers and difficulties and is no way a cake walks for any of the stakeholder. One of the key Problem is Implementation of 79 – A Process which is not done properly. As the redevelopment process done in Maharashtra is as per section 79 A of MCS act which is compulsory to be followed its study is important to make the process of redevelopment more user-friendly by proposing some changes. The research will help to identify general technical shortcomings in the 79 A process of redevelopment of old buildings as per the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act 1960 respectively. Based on the extensive literature survey, comparisons of survey material interaction, data collected from study area and analysis various technical improvements shall be suggested to make the process of section 79-A redevelopment process more feasible and sounder. The main aim of the study in this paper is to study in depth the existing 79 – A process of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act, and compare it with section 41- A of Gujrat ownership flats act and suggest few plausible improvements backed by the, collected data from study area, other similar literature and analysis respectively.
